Research:

My research interests lie in the architecture and
applications of Internet-based systems; an overview of my work so far in
these areas is briefly described in my curriculum vitae or
(out-of-date) research statement. I am
currently involved in several collaborative research
projects, addressing various aspects on the design, validation,
implementation, simulation and analysis of new networked systems architectures,
protocols, and online Internet services, especially signaling and QoS,
transport protocols, network security and resilience, software defined networks,
mobile and cloud computing, big data and social network analysis.

Projects:

My research team has been sponsored by European Commission,
State Lower Saxony, Volkswagen, Siemens, Nokia Siemens Networks, German
Telecom, ETSI, Panasonic, Huawei, as well as German Academic Exchange Service
(DAAD), US Department of State, and Chinese Scholarship Council (CSC). In
addition, we work in close collaborations with many national and international
institutions and industry partners.

Teaching:

As detailed in my teaching
statement, I've been indeed enjoying a great deal of pleasure having the
opportunity in delivery of my knowledge and experiences to the young elite,
sharing their excitement and satisfaction in knowing what, how, why and more,
as well as learning new things for myself. I am responsible for several courses
in systems and networking area, may they be introductory, intermediate or
advanced.

English-oriented CS
study programs at Goettingen: our Bachelor and Master programs in
Computer Science are currently bi-lingual (German/English) but one has
the option to study in our Master in Applied Computer Science
program completely in English (see example
study plan); the new international Internet Technologies
and Information System (MSc/PhD) program is completely in English and
started from winter semester 2010/11 (basic requirement: bachelor degree
of good grade and TOFEL/IELTS; GRE is not required).
